We can definitely sweep KC. That would be sweet! Not to mention the magic number would be down to 14 at the most.

 

so like blame this guy?

Politte's in.

You weren't here a couple weeks ago.

we all believe you.

 

 

on another note, where's cotts? havent seen him in a while

Garland pitches like a coward (look guys, I was careful how I said it! ). Watch Pedro pitch. He attacks hitters. He could have faced Babe Ruth without even flinching. And he would have come right at him. He doesnt back down for anyone. Garland is scared of the hitters. He will never be a great if he doesnt gain courage. As for Ozzie, he was here last year and we stunk. Its the new guys who made us good. We are winning in spite of Ozzie. All he does is bring bad publicity with his goofy jokes.

 

And, McCarthy, all I can say is damn. He will be on my favorites list shortly if he keeps this up. 14 straight innings without allowing a run, but unlike Garland who did his scoreless streak against Detroit and Oakland (when they stunk), BMac has done it against Boston and Texas, the two best offenses around. BMac is an aggressive pitcher, and he will soon be better than Garland could ever hope to be. Ace in the making, and a completely different pitcher than he was earlier. This kid aint scared of nothin'.

It's funny how garland and pedro basically have the same bb/ip ratio.

Exactly.

the last 3 sliders from politte were flat filthy

It's alright.

 

I meant that, when it comes to "I never said that", it pretty much only applies to your posts here.

Exactly.

 

sounds good!

I see a DP in Youkilis' future.

Cliffie's been in a bit of a slump lately.

Why would you set up inside with Politte? Everyone knows that his ball tails back towards the hitter. Politte's control has been real shaky lately, and I'm not so sure he was our best choice to bring in this inning. What more does Cotts have to do Ozzie?

thats what i'm wondering

This is one long ass game.

2:15 already and it's only in the 8th.

ESPN needs like 5 minutes between innings for commercials.

eh 4 run game...you cant give up on politte...maybe some success here can help him get his rhythm back...if politte gets in trouble, cotts will be right behind him

Marte's warming up.

They are so good at fouling pitches off.

If you gave me a helmet and a bat, and told me to face Garland, I wouldnt be scared. Id jump right in there. On the other hand, if you told me to face Pedro, Id tell you to get lost. Pedro is intimidating, Garland is not. Maybe its because Pedro will throw at anyone and be all ready for the fight. I like that. You dont hit a teammate of Pedro because he will get you. If Garland was pitching, they could peg Everett and PK in a row and Jon would still do nothing. Everett might whoop the pitchers ass, but on wouldnt do a thing. He is timid. Pedro lets everyone know whos in charge. Jon doesnt do that.

does ozzie want to lose this game?

Marte's warming up.

I'm surprised that Cotts hasn't tackled Marte yet.

 

filthy.

would you seriously not be scared? damn. you're f***ing cool.

 

i'd be scared of a 94 mph fastball and a dude who's 6'6" chucking it at me

You would have no chance with both guys.
